Explanation of Solution

Creating “TimeOfDay.java”:

  • Import required packages.
  • Define the “TimeOfDay” class.
    • Declare required variables.
    • Define the constructor and instantiate the variables.
    • Give function definition “setTimeTo ()” to set the time.
      • Declare required variables.
      • Create an object for the “Scanner” class.
      • Split the string using a delimiter “:”.
      • Inside the “try” block,
        • Get the hour and store it in a variable.
      • Catch the exception “Exception”.
        • Throw the exception “InvalidFormattingException” with a message.
      • Check if the hour value is valid.
        • Throw “InvalidHourException” with a message.
      • Get the remaining string and cut off the last two characters.
      • Check if the string’s length is less than 3.
        • Throw “InvalidFormattingException” with a message.
      • Get the minutes and store it in a variable.
      • Get “am” or “pm” and store it in a variable.
      • Inside “try” block,
        • Convert the minute string to integer.
      • Catch the exception “Exception”.
        • Throw “InvalidFormattingException” with a message.
      • Check if minute is less than 0 or greater than 59.
        • Throw “InvalidMinuteException” with a message.
      • Check whether the string is not equal to “am” and “pm”.
        • Throw “InvalidFormattingException” with a message.
      • Check if the string is equal to “am”.
        • Assign “true” to “isAM”.
      • Else,
        • Assign “false” to “isAM”.
    • Function to produce the resultant string.
      • Append all the value to a string.
    • Define the “main ()” method.
      • Create an object for the “Scanner” class.
      • Create an object for the class “TimeOfDay”.
      • Declare a variable “time”.
      • Inside “try” block.
        • Get the time from the user.
        • Call the function “setTimeTo ()” by passing the time.
      • Catch the exception “InvalidFormattingException”.
        • Print the message using “getMessage ()” function.
      • Catch the exception “InvalidHourException”.
        • Print the message using “getMessage ()” function.
      • Catch the exception “InvalidMinuteException”.
        • Print the message using “getMessage ()” function.
      • Print the time.

Creating “InvalidFormattingException.java”:

  • Define a class “InvalidFormattingException” that extends “Exception”.
    • Define a parameterized constructor.
      • Call the parent class’s method using “super ()” by passing the message.

Creating “InvalidHourException.java”:

  • Define a class “InvalidHourException” that extends “InvalidFormattingException”.
    • Define a parameterized constructor.
      • Call the parent class’s method using “super ()” by passing the message.

Creating “InvlaidMinuteException.java”:

  • Define a class “InvalidMinuteException” that extends “InvalidFormattingException”.
    • Define a parameterized constructor.
      • Call the parent class’s method using “super ()” by passing the message.

Program:

TimeOfDay.java:

//Import required packages

import java.util.*;

import java.util.Scanner;

//Define the main class

class TimeOfDay

{

    //Declare required variables

    private int hour, minute;

    private boolean isAM;

    //Constructor

    public TimeOfDay()

    {

        //Instantiate the values

        hour = 0;

        minute = 0;

        isAM = false;

    }

    //Function definition to set the time

public void setTimeTo(String aTime) throws InvalidFormattingException, InvalidHourException, InvalidMinuteException

    {

        //Declare required variables

        int hourFound;

        int minuteFound;

        String indicatorFound;

        //Create an object for the scanner class

        Scanner reader = new Scanner(aTime);

        //Split using the delimiter

        reader.useDelimiter(":");

        //Try block

        try

        {

            //Assign the hour

            hourFound = reader.nextInt();

        }

        //Catch the exception

        catch (Exception e)

        {

            //Throw the exception with a message

throw new InvalidFormattingException("Hour not an integer");

        }

        //Check the condition

        if(hourFound<1 || hourFound>12)

            //Throw the exception with a message

throw new InvalidHourException("Hour not in the range of 1 to 12");

        //Get the remaining string

        String restOfString = reader.next();

        reader = new Scanner(restOfString);

        //Remove the last two characters

        if(restOfString.length()<3)

            //Throw the exception

throw new InvalidFormattingException("Bad format");

        //Get the substring

String minuteString = restOfString.substring(0, restOfString.length()-2);

        //Get the substring

String amString = restOfString.substring(restOfString.length()-2);

        //Try block

        try

        {

            //Convert the minute to integer

minuteFound = Integer.parseInt(minuteString);

        }

        //Catch the exception

        catch (Exception e)

        {

            //Throw the exception

throw new InvalidFormattingException("Minute not an integer");

        }

        //Check the condition

        if(minuteFound<0 || minuteFound>59)

            //Throw the exception with a message

throw new InvalidMinuteException("Minute not in the range of 0 to 59");

        //Check condition

Write a class TimeOfDay that uses the exception classes defined in the previous exercise. Give it a method setTimeTo(timeString) that changes the time if timeString corresponds to a valid time of day. If not, it should throw an exception of the appropriate type. [Java]
Define an exception class called CoreBreachException. The class should have a default constructor. If an exception is thrown using zero-argument constructor, getMessage should return "Cor Breach Evacuation Ship!" The class should also define a constructor having a single parameter of type String. If an exception is thrown using constructor, getMessage should return the value that was used as an argument to constructor.
Write a program that calls a method that throws an exception of type ArithmeticExcepton at arandom iteration in a for loop. Catch the exception in the method and pass the iteration countwhen the exception occurred to the calling method by using an object of an exception class youdefinein java code
